Sažetak

War is part of sinful human nature and has been present since the very beginnings of human action. The nature of war has always aroused astonishment on the one hand and admiration on the other. Yet the harsh consequences of war constantly encourage man to limit and eliminate it, and the theory of just war is the fruit of such thoughts and efforts. The backbone of this paper is a historical overview of the theory of just war as well as a contemporary interpretation of just war by analysis of the literature of the most frequently mentioned authors and theorists. Then, contemporary security threats and the challenges they pose to the principles of a just war are analysed. In conclusion, the author seeks to provide an answer to the relevance and sustainability of the theory of just war in the modern security environment.
